Can the Super Bowl actually cause a heart attack?

Cardiac death rates increased in Los Angeles County after the Los Angeles Rams lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 1980 Super Bowl, according to the journal Clinical Cardiology and USA Today. Sometimes people get too emotionally invested in sports and drive up their stress level during a big game. I can see how people can suffer from heart attacks while cheering on their sports team. If you have cardiac problems, go see your doctor before this year’s Super Bowl.
